quote:Originally posted by jlg: It could be like a combination of the Fitness Race thread and the Erin Fund. Shipmates would post "X hours volunteering at the local food pantry" or whatever and someone would keep a running total of all hours volunteered In Memory of Erin.Perhaps at certain milestones, a card could be sent to Erin's family, letting them know how many hours and some of the charitable causes supported.

quote:Originally posted by The Great Gumby: This doesn't quite fit with the suggestions above, but Ricardus's comment here got me thinking about whether we could raise a band to ring something in Erin's memory.Obviously, Erin would be the ideal method, but might be asking a bit much of a scratch band.

You simply click on the cause for which you want to donate, and an advertiser donates--there's no cost to you.From what I see in this thread, it looks like some of Erin's interests were the environment, health, science, and history.I'm familiar with two sites that have some of those causes: The Hunger Site, and its sister sites. Care2.com offers many causes to click for. FWIW.
